The Ubuntu one, which is essentially the same as the Debian package, is perhaps the preferred alternative, given that the changes made by TBS to their repository are not entirely clear as to their origin and purpose.

In either case, I have no idea which of the current patches will still be required, given a change in source.

@dirk362 Couple options to switch source. Any preference?

The source URL for dvb-apps via hg is no longer valid. It appears the source has been completely removed from the linuxtv.org website. Therefore, this no longer compiles as the main source file cannot be found.

The source URL for dvb-apps via hg has changed at the source.

Base URL is now https://linuxtv.org/legacy-hg/dvb-apps

Updating line 34 of the PKGBUILD file to change the relevant part of the URL string from /hg/ to /legacy-hg/ allows correct source files to be obtained and built correctly.

Sorry, I don't think I can help you much with this one.

@xiota: not the whole command line, but you can see from the output that yay is used.

@Mr.Smith1974: this or very similar issue has been fixed about a month ago in the latest yay version. Possibly you just need to update it before installing this package. If you are unsure you can post output of yay -V.

@Mr.Smith1974 hg is provided by mercurial which is already in makedepends. What commands are you using to make this package?
